Don't miss this rare opportunity to work with the incomparable Mary Overlie, originator of the Viewpoints approach to theater creation and training. A brilliant teacher and innovator, Mary offers a distinct approach to re-conceiving theater, providing a practical and theoretical framework for making compelling, thought-provoking work. Mary teaches basic Viewpoints at her lab at NYU, but rarely offers intermediate/advanced courses for the general public.

This course will focus on the Horizontal Lab, deconstructing theater and looking at the myriad theatrical possibilities that arise once we let go of our basic preconceptions about narrative and character. The workshop will challenge your known perceptions, spark your creativity, and empower you with new ways of relating to other performers and the audience.

About Mary Overlie MARY OVERLIE has had a long and respected career as a performer, choreographer, teacher and theater collaborator working extensively in both the United States and Europe. Ms Overlie is a founder of: Danspace at St. Mark's Church a dance presenting organization and theater in New York; Movement Research, a dance co-operative now in its twenty fifth year of operation, sponsoring workshops and presenting performances serving the community of New York City dancer; The Experimental Theatre Wing; a studio in the department of Undergraduate Drama Tisch School of the Arts; The Pro Series, experimental dance workshops designed for the Tanz Wochen the summer dance festival of Vienna.
